Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) funding action titled "Impacts of Superstorm Sandy Mapping and Quantification of Geomorphological Change GATE, FIIS, ASIS" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 14 NERO 0062). It is explicitly labeled as a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning it is not an open solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public announcement that NPS intends to support a specific set of project activities through an award made without full and open competition. In practical terms, this type of posting is used to document transparency around a planned, directed award rather than to invite new proposals from the public.
The planned funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project during performance (for example, coordination on methods, data needs, deliverables, or field priorities), as opposed to a standard grant where the recipient usually operates more independently. The program is categorized under "Discretionary" and the activity category is listed as "Other," with the accompanying explanation reiterating that this is a non-competitive intent-to-award notice.
The project focus is mapping and quantifying geomorphological change resulting from Superstorm Sandy at three specific National Park System units referenced by acronyms: GATE (Gateway National Recreation Area), FIIS (Fire Island National Seashore), and ASIS (Assateague Island National Seashore). While the notice does not provide technical workplan details, the title indicates the effort is aimed at documenting storm-driven physical changes to coastal landscapes, such as shoreline movement, dune and beach morphology changes, overwash patterns, inlet dynamics, erosion and deposition zones, and related coastal landform adjustments. These types of mapping and measurement projects commonly support post-storm damage assessment, resource management decisions, restoration planning, and long-term monitoring of coastal resilience and change.
The notice states there is expected to be one award, with total estimated funding of $161,873. The award ceiling and floor are both $161,873, which implies a single fixed anticipated award amount rather than a range. No cost sharing or matching is required. The CFDA listing included is 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, indicating the assistance program framework under which this cooperative agreement is being issued.
Key dates show the posting and creation date as June 24, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 29, 2014, and an archive date of June 30, 2014. In the context of an intent-to-award notice, these dates function more like an administrative public-notice window rather than an application deadline for competing applicants, since the announcement is not soliciting proposals.
Eligibility is shown as "Others," but the eligibility text again clarifies that this is not a competitive opportunity. That typically means the recipient is predetermined or otherwise selected through a justification for limited competition, and the posting is meant to inform the public of that planned action.
For questions or difficulty accessing the full announcement, the listed contact is Patrick Reidy, Grants Management Specialist, by phone at 215-597-5949, with an NPS email referenced (though not fully displayed in the provided text).
